On October 22, 2018, Xjet officially opened its additive manufacturing center in Rehovot. Covering an area of 8,000 square feet and investing more than $10 million, Rehovot Technology Park is one of the world's largest metal and ceramic 3D printer centers, consisting entirely of the XJet Carmel AM system.

The XJet Carmel Series AM system utilizes XJet's patented NanoParticle Jetting (NPJ) technology to create objects by using nanoparticle inks of either material for 3D printing of ceramics and metals. More specifically, XJet's NanoParticle Jetting technology fills liquid suspensions with solid nanoparticles. When the materials are loaded into a 3D printer, they are jetted using a complex nozzle system that deposits ultra-fine ink droplets and support material ink. Go to the build tray. Inside the construction envelope, an extremely high temperature effectively evaporates the liquid suspension of the ink to form a dense layer of ceramic or metal. Finally, once the printing process is complete, the printing components can be sintered and the support material can be removed.

Thanks to its unique approach, NPJ technology can produce highly complex parts with ultra-fine details, smooth surfaces and precise accuracy. According to the company, the AM Center aims to support XJet in developing new 3D printed materials and applications.
